Working as a nurse in Farmerville
Farmerville sits in Union Parish in north Louisiana, north of Ruston and west of Monroe, and it carries far more per diem shift volume than its size suggests. Skilled nursing and long-term care work here is steady week to week — CNA and LPN shifts post consistently rather than occasionally.
The market draws nurses from across north Louisiana, including Monroe, West Monroe, Ruston, and Bernice. For clinicians in this part of the state, the rural facilities often provide more dependable scheduling than the larger metros, with less competition for the shifts that open.
Louisiana is a Nurse Licensure Compact state, so RNs and LPNs holding a multistate license from another compact state can claim shifts here without applying for separate Louisiana licensure.
Nursing pay in Farmerville, Louisiana
RNs working per diem across Louisiana are paid $42.00–$52.50/hr, LPNs $30.00–$37.50, and CNAs $16.75–$19.69 (Switch — rates paid on completed shifts, last 12 months).
Figures are the middle 50% of hourly rates actually paid to providers on completed Switch shifts over the last 12 months, including weekend and holiday premiums, measured across Louisiana where a role has too little local shift history to report on its own. Rates vary by facility and shift — you’ll see the exact rate on every shift before you claim it. As a 1099 provider you cover self-employment tax and benefits.
What nurses actually earn in Farmerville, Louisiana
Switch rates are what providers were actually paid on completed shifts over the past year — not a starting rate. Shown against local wages for employed staff nurses.
| Role | Switch (1099 per diem) | Local staff wages (W-2) |
|---|---|---|
| CNA | $16.75–$19.69/hr top shifts to $24.75 | — |
| LPN | $30–$37.50/hr top shifts to $48 | — |
| RN | $42–$52.50/hr top shifts to $63 | — |
Switch figures are the middle 50% of hourly rates actually paid on completed shifts in the last 12 months, including weekend and holiday premiums; “top shifts” is the 95th percentile. Local staff wages are employed (W-2) hourly ranges from the U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics, May 2025. As a 1099 provider you cover self-employment tax and benefits, so the two figures are not directly equivalent.

FAQs about working in Farmerville
How much do per diem nurses make in Farmerville?

Do I need a Louisiana license to pick up shifts in Farmerville?
Louisiana is a Nurse Licensure Compact state, so RNs and LPNs holding a multistate license from another compact state can work here without a separate Louisiana license. CNAs must be active and in good standing on the Louisiana nurse aide registry — aide certification does not transfer automatically.

Mostly skilled nursing, rehab, long-term care, and assisted living. Shifts are typically floor care for CNAs, medication passes and treatments for LPNs, and unit supervision and assessments for RNs.
How fast do I get paid?
Once your shift is approved you can cash out the next day with SwitchPay instead of waiting for a two-week pay cycle.
What do I need to start working in Farmerville?
An active license or certification, current BLS/CPR, COVID vaccination or a signed exemption form, and a current TB test. You'll take six short skills tests in the app and pass a background check. There are no reference checks.
